Greedy is being considered a bad attitude and the sole aim of getting rich is a pretty basic desire. While other people work pretty hard for their money, they don't want to see other people become rich by doing nothing, they feel this is unfair - which it is. When it comes to investments, people who don't dare to put money into an investment (Bitcoin) don't want it to succeed so they can rejoice not having lost an opportunity while staying safe.
The richest people in life did not become rich by working, they became and stayed rich by letting money and people work for them.
It's a myth designed to keep people obeying and working for them, and keep the system alive, but the system is designed to suit the needs of the very rich. And everyone else suffers.
Yeah, go on, work your ass off, earn a few pennies, maybe you can one day get "rich". Maybe you will get promoted some day so you can drive a slightly better car, life in a slightly bigger house. But you still get to waste most of your waking hours at a job you don't like and you will barely see your family and friends. And you will still be far poorer than the guy you call your boss.
Investing is one of the best ways to get rich, yes it may ruin you it you bet wrong, but you can't get rich without taking a risk. Starting up a company, investing in a company or an idea both are risky, but if you just keep trying and keep looking for the right opurtinty you can get out of the rat race, and life a live free of the financial slavery and spend time doing what you actually like to do.
More often than not they became rich by
not spending and living well below their means. This provides them with the capital to take measured risk. They are also rebels that do not accept the system. In particular when it comes to themselves they say
NO to everything the system tells consumers to do and do the exact opposite.
